Inquiry-discovery learning plays an important role in improving high-order thinking skills (HOTS) and scientific literacy (SL). In this HOTS and SL research, it was designed with Inquiry-discovery based learning. The purpose of this study was to promote Inquiry discovery models in empowering higher-order thinking skills and scientific literacy in physics with different classes. This research used Quasi-Experimental Design research, and Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design. The research analysis design matrix used two-way ANOVA. The sample was taken from two classes, namely the experimental and control classes of 68 students. The results of the study prove that Inquiry discovery can improve HOTS and SL physics of students. Thus, inquiry-discovery can be recommended to increase student's HOTS and SL physics when compared to conventional classes. The novelty of this study is that inquiry-discovery learning models are more likely to reconstruct students' scientific knowledge of physics on aspects of HOTS and SL with real-world life.
This study was aimed at analyzing the difference improvement of statistical literacy of the student teacher candidate in terms of their prior-ability on mathematics (PAM). This study used the Quasi Experiment method with the Non-equivalent Pretest-Posttest Control Group type and a sample of seventy elementary school student teacher candidates. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling method. The results of the research data were then analyzed using an independent sample t-test. Normalized-gain was used to analyze the improvement of students’ statistic literacy abilities. The study results significant differences in statistical literacy. Based on PAM, the group of students who received collaborative problem solving (CPS) models achieved higher statistical literacy improvements than students in the expository group. The improvement of statistical literacy was due to the effectiveness of CPS model. Collaborating can strengthen student statistic literacy skills. The ability of statistical literacy in learning requires students to have good PAM, because the PAM is a combination of knowledge and mathematical thinking skills in collaborating students can be actively involved in dealing with solving challenging statistical problems.KEMAMPUAN LITERASI STATISTIK MAHASISWA CALON GURU DITINJAU DARI KEMAMPUAN AWAL MATEMATIKAAbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis perbedaan peningkatan literasi statistis mahasiswa ditinjau dari kemampuan awal matematis (KAM). Penelitian menggunakan metode Quasi Eksperiment dengan tipe Non equivalent Pretest-Posttest Control Group. Sampel sebanyak 70 mahasiswa calon guru sekolah dasar yang diambil menggunakan metode purposive sampling. Data dianalisis menggunakan uji independent sample t-test. Normalized-gain digunakan untuk menganalisis peningkatan kemampuan literasi statistis mahasiswa. Penelitian menghasilkan adanya perbedaan signifikan peningkatan literasi statistis. Berdasarkan KAM kelompok mahasiswa yang mendapatkan pembelajaran dengan model collaborative problem solving (CPS) mencapai peningkatan literasi statistis lebih tinggi dari mahasiswa pada kelompok ekspositori. Peningkatan literasi statistis dikarenakan efektifnya penggunaan model CPS. Berkolaborasi dapat memperkuat kemampuan literasi statistis mahasiswa. Kemampuan literasi statistis dalam pembelajaran mensyaratkan mahasiswa harus memiliki KAM yang baik, karena KAM merupakan kombinasi antara pengetahuan dan keterampilan berpikir matematis sehingga dalam berkolaborasi mahasiswa dapat terlibat aktif dalam menghadapi dan menyelesaikan masalah statistik yang menantang.
Mathematical self-concept (MS-C) is an important construct that prospective mathematics teachers must have in mathematics learning. The aim of the research was to analyze the increase of MS-C of prospective mathematics teachers. The research was quasi-experimental with the design of one group pretest-posttest. The results showed that for prospective teachers, MS-C increased in the medium category while the MS-C indicators achieved in the medium and low categories. The increase of MS-C is due to the effectiveness of collaborative mind mapping (CMM) learning strategy and the process of strengthening MS-C capacity of prospective teachers. The CMM facilitates prospective teachers to construct creative ideas through structured collective ideas that support the increase of MS-C among prospective teacher.
Representasi matematis penting bagi mahasiswa untuk menyampaikan ide-ide kreatif terhadap permasalahan statistik. Pentingnya representasi matematis, maka tujuan penelitian ini adalah menganalisis perbedaan peningkatan representasi matematis mahasiswa calon guru sekolah dasar yang difasilitasi dengan menggunakan model collaborative problem solving. Metode yang digunakan adalah Quasi Eksperiment dengan desain Non-equivalent Pretest-Posttest Control Group. Sampel penelitian sebanyak 70 mahasiswa calon guru sekolah dasar. Hasil penelitian menunjukan terdapat perbedaan peningkatan kemampuan representasi matematis mahasiswa, dimana mahasiswa yang mendapatkan pembelajaran dengan model CPS memperoleh N-gain 0,46 lebih tinggi dari kelompok ekspositori dengan N-gain 0,30. Berdasarkan kemampuan awal matematis (KAM), baik level tinggi, sedang, dan rendah kelompok CPS mencapai peningkatan kemampuan representasi matematis lebih tinggi dari kelompok ekspositori (EPS). Perbedaan peningkatan mengindikasikan bahwa penggunaan model CPS dalam perkuliahan statistika pendidikan lebih baik dari model pembelajaran EPS. Peningkatan ini dikarenakan berkolaborasi dilaksanakan dalam kelompok, namun tujuan utamanya bukan untuk mencapai kesatuan yang didapat melalui kegiatan kelompok, tetapi mahasiswa calon guru sekolah dasar didorong untuk menemukan berbagai pemikiran kreatif yang disampaikan setiap individu dalam kelompok.
This study aims to describe the thinking process of students in solving mathematical problems of triangular and quadrilateral material in terms of cognitive style. The thinking process in this study is the steps taken by students involving mental activities in solving problems related to problem solving. The process of thinking in this study there are three kinds, namely conceptual thinking, semi-conceptual thinking and computational thinking. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The subjects in this study were grade VII students consisting of four students with details of each two students from the Field Independent (FI) cognitive style and two students from the Field Dependent cognitive style (FD). Data collection techniques used in this study were mathematical tests and interviews. Data on the results of mathematical tests and interviews were analyzed based on indicators suitable with the conceptual thinking process, semi-conceptual thinking process and computational thinking process. From the results of data analysis, it was found that the students' thinking processes in solving mathematical story problems in the Field Independent group is the conceptual and semi-conceptual thinking processes. And students' thinking processes in solving mathematical story problems in the Field Dependent group tend to be semi-conceptual and computational thinking processes.
